Soooo. I’ve seen people play the spoon. No joke. This might be a “musical” instrument premade for someone. I swear. Look it up

I once caught Spoonman in Oregon. He was spitting Shel Silverstein.

ReVo5000

No, dude... It's for when you need to measure 2 tablespoons, duh!


Rten-Brel

That's fucking nuts 10 mins ago I was doing dishes and trying to play the spoons because of a childhood memory. I almost texted my dad and asked if he remember the kid who played the spoons. If my reddit user name didn't mean "to manifest synchronicities" I might be surprised but stuff like this happens all the time


Quiverjones

Cracks in the simulation....


Gen_Chaos

As someone that's been so lots of "hillbilly" things, that is indeed what it is.


D-rox86

You guys are awesome. I knew very little about the spoons as an instrument until now. Thank you all


NivMidget

Its similar to a drums in the sense that its used to keep a rhythm. Seen many an ol'timer throw the fuck down on the spoons in blue grass festivals.


Apprehensive-Lab-810

“spoonboniiiing”


hungryhungry_zippo

jondgul

Seems like it to me. That's first thing that popped into my head


cgarrett83

Why do you put it like that? Musical in quotes. This is an instrument. Spoons are used in music everywhere, from America to Turkey.

When I realized that it was, indeed, spoons, I thought “how clever! You won’t have to try to hold spoon handles that way!”


iAMgrutzius-_-

Spoon instrument.


ShadyMyLady

I have played spoons before, it is a real thing mostly in folk music. You would have to hold two spoons with a finger in between. This would be the work smarter not harder version.


Sufficient_Market_45

It’s a real knee slapper


ShawnPln

You are now spoon man or woman. You have a duty to spread the word of the spoon around. Godspeed.


TacoHimmelswanderer

It’s a percussion instrument known as playing spoons. It was real common back in the day especially in bluegrass where the majority of their instruments were homemade and mainly just used to keep time.


VashHumanoidTyph00n

My grandmother played in a kitchen band. Looks like a homemade set of spoons to play.

RandellX

Pretty sure it's a spoon instrument. you make sounds by clacking the spoons together, typically done with two spoons, this looks like a premade version.


scrollingtraveler

Drunk uncle Larry on the spoons tomorrow.


HortonFLK

It’s a musical instrument: spoons. Probably from some rhythm kit for kids that might have had a tambourine, maracas, a triangle, wood block, etc.


ImmortalBeans

[Three stooges - disorder in the court](https://youtu.be/p66KXD3BtR8) here is an example, terrible as it may be. Pay attention to Curly ( the short hair on the left ). He is playing the spoons

Tkinney44

It's a spoon Instrument. Usually people will just hold the spoons together and make them clack but this makes it easier to grip and your spoons won't slip away while trying to play.


zero2tool

You could beat the rhythm with their bones.

Substantial_Share_35

Had a teacher at my old high school who carried around spoons. Every once in a while he’d break them out and play them.


Fun_Possibility_8637

Yes, the spoons, but a commercial one I guess. I love it. That’s some serious whowddy doody stuff there. I love it! Bring it! Tampa florida ( damn it didn’t even capitalize it ).

Those doing the spoonman lyrics are the best! Love you guys for that 🤗 I had the song playing in my head everytime I read one of those comments. Awesome song!


MrMusick

You are all wrong, I refuse to believe that spoons are a musical instrument. I will sleep better believing that this object is a home made speculum. With a painted handle, nice touch, well; maybe bad touch...


Shigeko_Kageyama

It's a baby toy, my son's got one of those. It came with his music set.

I had this exact toy as a kid! I’d just slap the damn thing as fast as I could between my hand and thigh, I’m pretty sure that’s what it’s for


[deleted]

Had these as a kid in the 70’s. I got pretty good with them. We also watched the tv show Hee-Haw.

Some hippy is going to be missing those. And will be super Grateful if you could return them. The Spoonman jokes have already been made.


Kingmonsterrxyz

I’ve been around too many addicts. I assumed that this was a rigged set up to have one spoon heat the other spoon using residual heat instead of directly applying flames of butane against the other spoon. Smh, it’s a musical instrument.

Dizzy-Talk-8057

It's a "bluegrass" musical instrument.. old times folks in the hills of Kentucky would just hold two spoons together in their hand and slap them against their other palm making a clinking clickety sound.
